White Christmas Lyrics


[chorus intro]

I'd like to have a White Christmas
A City bathing in the light
Id like to have the rightest Christmas
So you and I can do this right

I'd like to hear the Christmas cheers,
To top my tree with a shining spike.
But if this Christmas you're not here
It doesn't matter what I like...


I'll be happy if you are happy,
If this White Christmas you're not beside me,
I'll put my heart inside a wrapping
Beneath your Christmas tree.

[chorus melody]


I'm walking down the street of Paris,
I walk and run but I cannot hide.
There's something missing in the air,
For you're not here, by my side.

You decorate your house brightly,
Around your Christmas tree you drift.
And year to year a box is waiting
You never see beneath the gifts...


The snow is falling, the bells are calling,
But all I feel is my mind stalling.
My first White Christmas I'm recalling
I used to feel so free.

I'll be happy if you are happy,
If this White Christmas you're not beside me,
I'll put my heart inside a wrapping
Beneath your Christmas tree.


[verse melody]

I'd like to have a White Christmas
A City bathing in the light
Id like to have the rightest Christmas
So you and I can do this right


You should be happy, but you're not happy,
Despite your angel wings flapping.
And this White Christmas the rain is tapping
Reminding you of me

I'll be happy if you are happy,
If this White Christmas you're not beside me,
I'll put my heart inside a wrapping
Beneath your Christmas tree.
